I know You Don\'t Care, But It\'s Big For Me!
I'm just back to my home from a trip to Chicago, where I won 1st in a 60 person tournament for a WSOP buy-in and $3,000!!
This was my 3rd live tournament ever played - 2nd was the satellite to win my way into this tournament. I can hardly believe that I won the thing. Thanks to everyone who contributes their insight to this Forum - it is a great place to learn. |

I still remember my first tournament win--July 4th, 2002. 20 Players at a local club. $55 with two optional $50 rebuys....$1700 for first place.
Feels good, right? Shane |

You're right, I don't care.
Nah, I'm just kidding; good job! |

Were you the older guy in the blue shirt whos picture the floor was taking under the sign? If thats the case I was sitting in the chair right to the left of you as you stood for the shot..I am a big guy with glasses and a blue cap playing NL that day. i also played in the turny, and placed 18th [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I like the idea of the qualifiers, but the blind structure was more like rolling dice then playing cards..you start with 2000$, and the blinds are 25/50 and go up ever 15 minutes. This was a joke if you ask me. i enjoyed myself for the 40 buy in it took me to win my seat, but still a joke. Congrats sir, i hope you do well out there. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: I know You Don\'t Care, But It\'s Big For Me!
yeah, that was me. Now it will take weeks to get over the depression being called the "older guy" has caused! Anyway, I had a great time and hope you did too. The final hand was quite interesting - I had 88 and the other guy had 33 - when they turned over the flop, the top card was a 3 and I was about to faint. When the dealer spread the cards, an 8 was just below the 3! Thanks for the well wishes - I hope you won a bundle at the NL table!
